7 Turn sequence 1. Roll a dice each and add the highest LD value from each of your armies. The player with the highest result chooses who will be start this turn. If more than two players are present, the turn sequence will follow the value of the dice rolls in descending order. 2. Player A picks a miniature from the chosen squad and uses all the actions that miniature has. 3. Player A repeats #2 with all the miniatures in the squad 4. Player B chooses a squad to activate 5. Player B picks a miniature from the chosen squad and uses all the actions that miniature has. 6. Player B repeats #5 with all the miniatures in the squad 7. Player n chooses a squad to activate 8. Player n picks a miniature from the chosen squad and uses all the actions that miniature has. 9. Player n repeats #8 with all the miniatures in the squad 10. Go to step #2 as long as there are unactivated squads left on the table. If on player runs out of squads, the other player finishes all his squads before proceeding to next turn. 11. Go to step #1 Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 7 af 20

8 Actions During a soldiers turn - Move - Jump - Go prone/stand - Aim - Fire - Climb - Hide - Overwatch - Suppression - Initiate close combat - Open/close/lock/unlock Actions possible in overwatch - fire - move - go prone/stand Actions that one may break overwatch in reaction to - move - fire - go prone/stand - climb - jump - initiate close combat - Open/close/lock/unlock Move When moving the individual soldiers you have to the terrain into account. Modifiers to movement Obstacle Streams, forrest, bush Obstacles < miniature height Obstacles > miniature height Closed (not locked) door/window/hatch etc Rubble etc. Prone Hide Penalty ½ MV 1 action use climbing rules/otherwise impassable 1 action ½ MV 1/3 MV 1/3 MV Jump This action illustrates the soldier jumping (or falling) from or to a different height. After deciding how high the jump was crossreference with this table to see if the soldier takes damage: Height Damage 5-9cm cm cm 10(x2) 27-36cm 13(x2) 36-45cm 16(x3) 45-54cm 19(x3) Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 8 af 20

9 Go prone/stand It takes one action to gro prone or to stand up from prone position. While prone the soldiers movent is reduced to 1/3 of the original speed. Aim A soldier can spend 1 action aiming at his target. This will give him +3 RC while firing at the target. If the target is killed after the first shot the last action, if spent firing at another target will NOT have the +3 modifier. Fire target priority: - A unit must fire at the neares closest unit within short range. - If there is no enemy unit within short range, the squad may fire at whatever it pleases. To hit targets more than 60cm s away a succesful LD roll must be made. Climb The miniature might want to climb somewhere and can use one action to climb 3cm s. After each spent action the player will have to roll 1d20. If the result is a 19 or 20 the miniature falls to the ground sustaining damage following this table: Height Damage 0-9cm cm cm 10(x2) 27-36cm 13(x2) 36-45cm 16(x3) 45-54cm 19(x3) Hide A unit may try to hide when out of LOS from any enemy units. A hidden drops from hidden status when one from the hidden squad fires or an enemy unit comes within LOS (this could be as little as 9cm if the hidden unit is located in a forrest. The movement value is reduced to 1/3 while moving as hidden. Overwatch A unit may as its last action attempt to switch into overwatch mode. This require the squad to make a successfull LD check against their leaders LD value. Paniced or suppressed units may not attempt overwatch. Suppression To suppres an area the whole unit must fire at the same time ie. spending 2 simultainous actions. The actions must be performed as the last actions by the squad. The suppressed area will cover 10x10cm. Any miniature entering, leaving, moving inside the area will suffer 1 strength (* hit per action spent. Movement inside the area is halved and takes a succesful LD roll to do. Panicked units will NOT be able to move while suppresed. The LD value is reduced by 1 for each strength point after the first 2. * the strength of the suppresion area is calculated this way: - add ½ point for each normal tropper in the squad, 2 for each lmg/hmg and 7 for each mounted hmg - subtract/add any modfiers (cover, etc.) - halve the value when firing against hidden units - round the result up Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 9 af 20

10 Initiate close combat This action equals a move action but is used to bring the soldier into base contact with an enemy soldier. Open/close/lock/unlock This action allows a soldier to open or close a door/window/hatch etc. Locking or unlocking something requires the soldier to be in possesion of the appropriate key. Scenarios might demand that more than one action is spent. Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 10 af 20

11 Morale Soldier outside command radius: - CC, RC, LD = ½ - Soldier must use his own halved LD value when rolling for LD. - Morale checks The unit must pass a morale check immidiately if : - more than 25% of the squad is killed at the same time (i.e. by fire from the same enemy squad) - the unit loose more than 50% of original size - the leader is killed - a friendly squad (with originally at least 5 soldiers in it) in LOS is annihilated A unit that fails its moralecheck becomes panicked! Special morale checks - more than 10 hits are scored on the squad by the same enemy squad. If this check fails the squad must fall back 10cm away from the firing squad. (It doesn t matter if the player saves the hits or not) - Panic Panic results int the following: - the squads CC,RC is halved, rounding down - the squad may not advance on enemy units - may not engage close combat - must seek cover (if this cover lies within 6cm of the squad or in a direction leading away from enemy troops). If no cover is available the squad will go prone and stay put! Recovering from panic The squad must make a succesful leadership test to shake of the panic. If there is an enemy in LOS there is a 2 modfier to their leadership value. If the squad is under fire there is a 4 modfier to their leadership value. These effects are NOT cumulative. The leadership test must be made against the leaders LD value. Soldiers out of command range use their own LD value (which will be halved because of the distance to the leader) Recovering requires the squad to simultaniously spend 3 actions, giving them 1 chance per turn to recover. Permanent effects If a squad is reduced to 1/3 of its original size, the unit has been so damaged that it may no longer move closer to any visible enemy! This does not count for Elite troops and HW teamsm which normally operates in small numbers. Squad leader bites the dust When the squad leader is killed the closest miniature gets the stribes (if you have painted a coporal use him instead). The new leader does not inherit the +1 LD, so the whole squad is using the same LD as normal soldiers. Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 11 af 20

12 Combat Ranged Combat To Hit your target To resolve ranged combat use the following procedure: - start with the firing models RC value - add all modifiers for range, aiming etc. - subtract modifiers for range, cover, panic etc. The result is the actual RC value for the shot to be fired. Roll a D20. If the result is lower or equal to the modified RC value the shot hit. Example: Marine (RC 7) with assault rifle (+2 in short range) firing at target in short range. The target is covered more than 50% (-1 RC). The modified RC is 7 (RC) + 2 (S.R bonus for rifle) 1 (cover modifier) = 8 The marine player rolls a 6, enough to hit his target. To hit modifiers Target prone Target covered 25-50%* Target covered 50-75%* Target covered more than 75%*/(a) Forrest (target less than 3cm away from treeline) Forrest (target more than 3cm away from treeline) Crest** (target less than 3cm away from crest) Crest** (target more than 3cm away from crest) Night Aim For each 10cm higher than target (up till 30cm)*** For each 10cm lower than target (up til 30cm) Tracer rounds (only night) -1 RC -1 RC -2 RC -3 RC -1 RC -2 RC -1 RC -2 RC -2 RC +3 RC +1 RC -1 RC +2 RC * not cumulative with the other % rules (a) this covers firing at targes standing behind firingslits etc. in bunkers and the like. **crest: can also be roofs, rocks etc. *** this negates the targets eventual modifier for being prone. To damage your target Base value = 10 The dice roll is based on the base value, adding or subtracting the difference between the damage and armorvalue. If the damage is the greatest subtract the difference from the base value, otherwise add it. The roll has to be lower or equal than the modified base value. Damage = 8 Armorvalue = 8 Save = die roll of 10 or less Damage = 10 Armorvalue = 8 Save = die roll of 8 or less Damage = 6 Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 12 af 20

13 Armorvalue = 8 Save = die roll of 12 or less Damage modifiers Target behind soft cover Target behind hard cover Less than 3cm from treelines in a forrest (softcover) More than 3cm from treelines in a forrest (softcover) Less than 3cm from crest* in a forrest (hardcover) More than 3cm from crest* in a forrest (hardcover) -1 Dam -2 Dam -1 Dam -2 Dam -1 Dam -2 Dam *crest: can also be roofs, rocks etc. Close Combat Modifiers to attacking in close combat Target positioned higher than attacker Target positioned lower than attacker Target prone Target behind cover For each friendly unit participating (up to +3) -1 CC +1 CC +1 CC -1 CC +1 CC Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.'

14 Special rules Parachute deployment 1st option : Deploy no more than 18 cm from tableedge and no closer than 36cm from known enemies. 2 nd option : Mark a droppoint. Now roll a dice against each soldiers LD. If the roll fails, the soldiers new droppoint will be 1d20cm in?? direction. If the roll succeds the soldier lands at most 6cm from the droppoint. Both options leaves the soldiers with no more actions left. Seneste rettelse: { SAVEDATE \@ "d MMMM åååå 'kl.' HH:mm" } Side 14 af 20
